ROLLING MILL INDUSTRY OF
INDIA
DEFINITION OF
ROLLING MILL
Rolling Mill Process
IN METALWORKING, ROLLING IS A METAL FORMING PROCESS IN WHICH METAL
STOCK IS PASSED THROUGH ONE OR MORE PAIRS OF ROLLS TO REDUCE THE
THICKNESS AND TO MAKE THE THICKNESS UNIFORM. THE CONCEPT IS SIMILAR
TO THE ROLLING OF DOUGH. ROLLING IS CLASSIFIED ACCORDING TO THE
TEMPERATURE OF THE METAL ROLLED. ITS HAVE TWO ROLLED
ROLLING MACHINE PARTS
1. Rolling Gear
2. Rolling Stand
3. Roller
4. IGNOT
5. Stetting Screw
Hot Rolled Cold Rolled
TYPE OF ROLLED
A. HOT ROLLED :-
Hot rolled steel is steel that has been roll-pressed at very high temperatures—over
1,700˚F, which is above the re-crystallization temperature for most steels. This
makes the steel easier to form, and resulting in products that are easier to work
with.
ADVANTAGES & DISADVANTAGES
Advantages
– Easier to make: heat it up, push through, cool down and that’s it!
– Cheaper than cold rolled
– Hot rolled steel is allowed to cool at room temperature and it’s free from internal stresses that
can arise from quenching or work-hardening processes
– Most popular shapes are hot-rolled (UC, UB, SHS, RHS, PFC, flats etc.)
Disadvantages
– dimensional imperfections caused by heating (expanding) and cooling down (shrink, warpage)
– rough texture on a surface, need to be removed and buffed before painting
– Slight distortions
B. COLD ROLLED :-
Cold rolled steel is essentially hot rolled steel that has been through further
processing. Once hot rolled steel has cooled, it is then re-rolled at room
temperature to achieve more exact dimensions and better surface qualities.
ADVANTAGES & DISADVANTAGES
Advantages
– accurate shape (consistent and straight)
– a wider range of surface finishes
– a smooth and shinier surface
– bars are true and square and have well-defined edges and corners
– Tubes have better concentric uniformity and straightness.
Disadvantages
– more expensive
– fewer shapes available cold-rolled (sheets, box section shapes: CHS, SHS,
RHS)
– additional treatments can create internal stress within the material; this can
cause unpredictable warping if the steel is not stress relieved prior to cutting,
grinding, or welding.

FUTURE OF ROLLING MILL INDUSTRIES
Its Truly Depended On Iron, Metal, Stell, etc.
Which Difficulty's Are Facing THIS INDUSTRIES Are Having Changes In Rolling Mill Industry , Like If
Steel Price Are Increasing and if price was going low then its also have changes in rolling industries.
So if This Industries Have A Bright Feature Then Its Have No dout That Rolling Mill Is Have A good Future.
